The challenge is Ts were dropped due to their cost and not "technology". Stars are much more expensive and thus exclusive.. So based on this all keelboats should be dropped from the Olympics..
As for the "legends" aruments.. I guess we could ask Mohammen Ali to fight Jo Frazier for an Olympic gold medal.. They are "legends"..
Something I hadn't thought of, which I think is a valid reason for keeping keelboats, is that the keelboat infrastructure is required for Paralympics. If you remove the requirement for this stuff at the Olympics, it could affect venues not wanting to invest for the Paralympics; Sad, but probably true.
